Rating: Summary: Universal Fans Drop Everything and GET DVD ALREADY! Review: When Universal started putting out the classic monsters on DVD this fall, I just knew I'd have to wait a long time for the underappreciated Wolf Man. But no! On the heels of the OUTSTANDING discs of Frankenstein, The Bride & The Mummy comes another first-class offering. Like the others, THE WOLF MAN contains an excellent documentary as well as the trailer and a commentary track by a film historian. The print of the film is gorgeous. I don't care what your age is or when you first saw this amazing film, if you're a horror fan you simply must own this one.
Rating: Summary: Horror classic with brilliant performances. Review: One of the most compelling monster films ever produced stars Chaney as an unfortunate victim of werewolf (Lugosi). After he is bitten, Chaney turns into a wolf when the full moon rises. See it! Produced and directed by George Waggner; original screenplay by Curt Siodmak.
Rating: Summary: Superb horror classsic that gets better with each screening Review: This classic is a must for all horror fans. The special effects are top notch, not created on a computer screen like today's so called "classics" The atmosphere of this film, the dark lighting, foggy forest sets and unforgettable characters make this film an absolute treat. All actors and actresses in the cast are excellent, in particular Lon Chaney in his best role and the always superb Claude Rains. I strongly recommend this film to all lovers of quality thrills, you can't go past "The Wolf Man" Get it for your collection, a true classic!
Rating: Summary: THE DEFINITIVE WEREWOLF FILM Review: George Waggner's(not Karl Freund) "The Wolfman" is undoubtedly the best film ever made that deals with the curse of lycanthropy. An outstanding cast, incredible photography and atmospheric music contribute to an excellent film. The transfer is good, though it could have been better(speckles and scratches abound). The supplementary materials-documentary, audio commentary- are top notch. Well worth adding to your DVD collection.

Rating: Summary: THE WOLFMAN IS A TRUE CLASSIC AFTER 58 YEARS Review: THE WOLFMAN IS A TRUE CINNAMATIC CLASSIC LON CHANEYJR IS GREAT AS LARRY TALBOT(THE WOLFMAN) BELA LUGOSI'S SMALL ROLLA (BELA THE FORTUNE TELLER IS A BONUS) EVELEN ANKERS "EVEN A MAN WHO IS PURE OF &SAYS HIS PRAYERS A NIGHT CAN BECOME A WOLF WHEN THE WOLF BANE BLOOMS &THE AUTUM MOON IS BRIGHT"
Rating: Summary: This is worth owning for yourself and the children. Review: The kids of today will look at the scene where Lon Chaney changes into a wolf and probably laugh at the "primitive" special effects. However, once they see that this is a horror movie with an actual plot they may have a better appreciation for what a good horror movie can be. They can compare this movie with the current films that have body parts falling to the side and rivers of blood as substitutes for an entertaining story. Lon Chaney, Jr. gives one of his best performances and how can you not sympathize with the poor guy. Evelyn Ankers is worth howling for. And the gypsy woman is as convincing a character as you can hope to find.
Rating: Summary: 1 for the Horror Movies Hall of Fame Review: A splended performance by Claude Rains and Lon Chaney Jr! Alot better than todays horror movies including no gore. It is a must see for anyone who wants to see a good horror movie.
Rating: Summary: Wolf Man Review: The Wolf Man is one of the lesser of the great Universal horror classic but still a classic. It is about a werewolf who doesn't want to be one. The only real problem with the movie is a lack of motivation. We know that you don't want to be a werewolf. If you want to see a better movie see the original Frankenstein but still don't miss the Wolf Man!P.S. Does anyone remember the ending? I forgot it and it's really bugging me.
